Hey @luciansmith, during the Compucell3d workshop, people with M3 Macs could not converge to a solution using any equation with "x^y" for y >= 1. We have yet to test other forms of calling a pow() function. However, there might be an incompatibility with the new architecture—just a heads-up.

We've found some other oddnesses with the newest mac architectures, too, which seem to stem from the newest ones using more precise doubles, which just sends some calculations down different paths. In at least one case, it turned out that the new macs claimed it was impossible to reach a solution, while the old architectures had found a solution---but it turned out that solution was wrong, and that 'no solution' was actually accurate.

Let me know if you're figured out anything else!
